Chapter 859: Blood bathing the Empyrean Peak (2/2)

Then, most abruptly, a rapid beat of explosions sounded in the sky. A lightning bolt several times brighter than the sun struck Han Shuo who had been invincible, until now.

The magnificent naked body of Han Shuo started violently quaking and his hair went stiff and stood upright. That, with his dark red eyes and sinister expressions, only made him appear even more terrifying.

Han Shuo no longer aimlessly pursued those puny characters fleeing in disarray but raised his head to gaze at the three-meter tall, bulky Salas who had just arrived. Although his eyes were still dark red, Han Shuo had regained his sanity the moment he was struck by the lightning.

Han Shuo immediately realized that he had inexplicably gone total berserk. When in a demonic trance, not only could he land himself in great danger, he would kill even his own friends if they were present!

However, there was another state of demonic trance where Han Shuo could still possess some self-control. Although he would not be as calm as he usually would, he could at least stop himself from killing his own people. This was the last technique of the Nine Changes Realm - Omen Change - which he had mastered. Han Shuo was currently in this state.

Han Shuo managed to readjust his mind very rapidly. While suppressing the explosive urge to massacre, he stared fixedly at Salas with his murderous eyes and viciously asked, “Salas?”

The muscles on Salas’ face were twitching in rage. It was clear from the bodies and shattered energy towers what Han Shuo had done. Throughout the many years he ruled as one of the Five Sovereigns of the Fringe, no one had ever committed such an outrageous act on his Empyrean Peak.

Even Sovereign Tyre, the Sovereign with the greatest strength, had never attacked the average gods of Empyrean Peak. Such was the tacit agreement between the Five Sovereigns!

But today, the Empyrean Peak that represented the might and sovereignty of Salas was nearly wrecked with more than three hundred of his followers butchered. This was an insult that Salas had never suffered in the tens of thousands of years he had lived!

Salas’ blood was so seethed that it almost fried his brain. He breathed heavily for three seconds as he looked around his devastated Empyrean Peak. The scene of carnage made him even more determined to incinerate Han Shuo.

Salas did not waste a word. He did not even ask Han Shuo for his origins. After keeping silent for three seconds, he transformed. Thick electrical dragons wound around him from head to toe before he threw himself at Han Shuo from the sky.

The moment that Salas moved, the whole sky became filled with the sounds of thunder. The deafening thunderclaps carried bizarre energy fluctuations that targeted Han Shuo alone. Immediately after, the space around him violently exploded. It was as though the thunderbolts were always around him but they were only detonated after the soundwaves arrived.

The explosive roar of the thunderbolts targeted his ears and soul while its explosive power targeted his body. Once struck, a thunder attack of such power could instantly kill any highgod on the spot. In fact, the thunderclap alone would directly break apart the divine soul of a highgod.

However, Han Shuo’s demonic body could not be compared to the divine body of an average highgod. The ear-splitting thunderclap that shot into Han Shuo’s consciousness through his ears had only caused him to feel dizzy for a moment. The violent explosions that bombarded Han Shuo had automatically and instantly activated the Omen Invincible Body.

After the thunder passed, Han Shuo had a new skin color and his body was smoking. However, he was still standing tall on the ground.

The enormous explosive force of the lightning bombardment had been stopped by his Omen Invincible Body. However, the attacks of an overgod wouldn’t be that simple. Minute threads of lightning energy managed to intrude Han Shuo’s demonic body in that instant. Those lightning energies also possessed self-awareness. After entering Han Shuo’s body, they discussed and decided to charge towards Han Shuo’s brain to blow up his soul.

The threads of lightning energy also possessed explosive powers. They planned on exploding after they reached Han Shuo’s soul.

Han Shuo understood that the divine souls of gods in this universe were not as miraculous as the consciousness of a demonic art cultivator. If the slightest energy managed to penetrate the expert’s skin and make their way to the expert’s brain area, just one tiny explosion could shatter their awareness or even annihilate their divine soul.

Had it been any highgod who suffered such an attack from Salas, it would have meant instant death.

However, to a master of demonic arts like Han Shuo, this insignificant trick could do him no harm. With one thought of his consciousness, demonic yuan rapidly circulated in his body. Those lighting energies that intruded into his body were located and intercepted. Han Shuo annihilated them before they could reach his brain area.

Han Shuo raised his head and saw that Salas who was covered with thunderbolts had just arrived before him.

He cracked a fanatical, diabolical grin and shot to the sky, straight at Salas. He spread his arms, clenched his fists, and hurled them forward. The extremely potent killing intent that lingered around him transformed into two long and dark dragons that ferociously charged at Salas.
